Coming into a game where he needed to assure fans that he could still be the Noah Syndergaard of old, Thor did just that in a 1-0 victory over the Reds. With his shutout, Syndergaard became the first Mets pitcher to throw a complete-game shutout since a guy named Noah Syndergaard did it last September. In an impressive display of dominance, he struck out ten Reds and only allowed four hits in his nine innings of work.
If you’re wondering where the Mets only run of the game came from, well that was also Noah Syndergaard’s doing.
